I've been on RC3 with no issues, I just updated to RC5 and my temperature values are updating very slowly, every 2-4 seconds or so. Just checked RC4 and it does the same thing, is this because of the increased request timeouts to constant 2s?

@royal32 i am not sure. the timeout wait just longer for a done request to timeout and handling the next. if the response come immediately then the next request should fired. Do you have any errors in the console tab?

royal32

@mfs12 Hmm. No errors in the console.
